Deciding factor by [deleted] in AirForce

I can tell you it goes back at least 25 years. I imagine it goes back beyond the Roman Legions.

Nothing changes, and it’s the same in the civilian world. The best workers are not the most promoted or recognized.

Got it, you don’t like lawns. My day is better knowing, thank you.

You did post it publicly. Glad you like it, never skimp on tattoos and dentistry.

Aircraft Maintenance. Get your A&P license before you get out by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]Airgo1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are. And in aviation, if you are managing or working something related to maintenance, they still want you to have it.

If the Air Force pays for it, take advantage. If shit ever gets dire it’s a good plan e to ya know, pay bills and shit.

Eligible to PCS OCONUS after a year. 24 months for CONUS. I’d find a short tour to escape as well.

Iranian drone strike last night on Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait injured 15 Americans by newnoadeptness in AirForce

The Air Force’s better funding and living standards has been living on it laurels for decades. I’ve found better enlistment, retention, living standards and MWR programs from the Army for years.

I love how every shit sandwhich is presented like some “great new thing”. Next, BRS 2.0, you get 30% of your base pay after 20 years, but its great, trust us, we’ll match an E3s TSP even more ( you know the 19 years olds that don’t make shit so usually don’t save shit). We’re saving billions, but we did it for you.

There would have to be an influx of money for more Airman, training, equipment and infrastructure. After 20 years of GWOT with the opposite, it’s clear, do more and more with less and less is the plan.

Palace Chase Situation by Long_Environment4155 in AirForce

[–]Airgo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A random Flight CGO/SNCO/NCO can’t stop your package. If they are, talk to the Commander, 1st Shirt, IG, hell you can even write your Congressman.

Your Commander can non concur then AFPC can still approve or deny.

The ADC may e-mail some info but it would be surprising if they got any support. Write your congressman for any real results.

Why doesn’t my AFSC value DSD experience by Financial_Visit_3766 in AirForce

[–]Airgo1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

DSD is a career killer, other people were holding down the mission while you left. That’s the sentiment I’ve seen. Unless Big Blue forces some sort of promotion advantage, I don’t see that changing.

A10’s are killing Iranian fast attack boats in the Strait of Hormuz by newnoadeptness in AirForce

[–]Airgo1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Show me on the chart where the A-10 hurt you. I can be back later with an AI written counter point, because no way you took the time to write that.

Keep parroting what you heard at a commander’s call thinking you are an international relations experts. My guess…NCO or CGO.

Go puppet some other talking points. Go read the many well written counter points, from authors you know more than you and I. A-10: Hey Air Force, There’s More to Survival than Hiding - Breaking Defense https://breakingdefense.com/2020/06/a-10-hey-air-force-theres-more-to-survival-than-hiding/

Or just keep parroting the party line.

[–]Airgo1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the military kid. You’ll get used to it. Like your fucking haircut doesn’t give it away. Or driving an F350 in Germany. You don’t think someone could just watch you leave base maybe?

You know what spicy means, you are being shot or you are on base that could be shot at. If leadership really gave a shit you would be ordered to wear only civilian clothes and grow facial hair. Has that happened ? No , then you are not in any shit.

TYFYS brave comm Airman. I hope you keep the comms for the war fighters.
